| Pass Labs Power Cord I have had really good luck with the ESP Essence pc on my Pass X250.5. The only cord I have have found that significantly bettered it was a Michael Wolff Carbon PC but that one costs over $1K. | |
| Wadia 22 Transport - anybody know anything? One thing to consider is that if the transport goes you will have a boat anchor on your hands. There are no parts available to repair that transport. I second the suggestion to speak with Steve Huntley. | |

| Hifi racks with isolation If you have the space for them the Critical Mass shelves and racks work great.Critical Mass Systems.comAlso, I would second the recommendation for the HRS stuff. With either brand you can start with the isolation shelves first. | |
| Any Sonic Benefit Tri-Wire vs Bi-Wire vs Single ? What speakers are they? If they are Harbeth's you should use a single wire connection and the stock jumpers. | |
| What do you think of Vandersteen 5a's? Sorry, but the Vandersteen 5A's and the Quatro's can both be pushed up very close to the front walls and be made to sound great. My dealer set mine up only 7" from the wall and they still sound amazing! | |
| Speakers for a Scott amp. I used a pair of Vandersteen 1C's with a 222c for years. It was a great matchup. | |

| AR LS 26 and Pass Labs X350.5 Compatible? I am using an ARC LS26 with a Pass Labs X250.5 amp and it is a great combination. I also tried the REF3 and that sounds even better, as expected. I tried using the Aesthetix Calypso with the Pass and that was not a good combination. It worked but ... | |
| Subwoofer for Harbeth M30? Hi,I used a REL Storm with the Super HL5's in my room. They worked well together. My room was actually two rooms as I have a large listening room that opened into another large open space. I have subsequently sold both speakers as I bought a pair ... | |
| Vandersteen 5a vs. B&W 802D vs. Maggie 3.6 vs.? As your post says "the best musical speaker" out there, I would suggest that you look into the Harbeth Monitor 40.1 as it becomes available this month. They are the most musical and natural sounding speakers I have ever heard.They play great at lo... |
